    Check EV System warning message

    My Check EV light keeps coming on, and the dealer can't do anything about it since Tesla claims that this is a glitch in the software...hmmm. Now the pattern is my EV light turns on in the morning right after I unplug, then turns of after 2 days.

    Check EV System warning message

    I got my car back, and I can't believe they are pulling this sh.t. Tasks says this was some sort of glitch in the software that caused the EV check light. The check light error saids HV battery damage to contacters. Pretty much my car was at the dealer for 6 days and they clear the code and...

    aftermarket wheelson the RAV4 EV

Front: 235/45-20 Rear: 275/40-20 However, I am losing range due to wider tire friction and wind resistance...

    Check EV System warning message

    My car is at the dealer now, they said I might need a new battery but waiting for Tesla to communicate. I told the service manager, if they are going to spend 20k to replace the batter, let me have an option to return the car. Maybe it is time to order the Model X.

    Check EV System warning message

    Tony, did they fix your car? I got a call from Toyota today and they said Tesla gave them an instruction to replace the ECU. I also saw other folks got their ECU replaced, but I thought ECU is a rare part to be defected. I hope this will actually fix all my issues.

    Check EV System warning message

    My car is still at the dealer waiting for Tesla's tech, with no updates. I want my money back so I can go get a Tesla Model S.

    Did Toyota and traps figure out the cause of the EV warning? My car is at the dealer for 4 days already, with unknown issue and unknow estimate time for the fix. I am guessing it will be there for another week.
